ORIPOTIVE AND INSTRUM™NTATION
Objectives, instrumentation, ani techniques are as stated in the
Project Detail in section 2 of the Program 2 Consolidated Book.

GENERAL

.

The radiation levele on the YAG-40 were too low to supply data
adequate for the satisfaction of project objectives.
The ratiation levels on the YA9-39 were high enough to yield
uscful data: however, the rains encountered by the YAG-39 caused some
apparent anomalies in the data and my rrevent the satisfaction of some
te

projest ob ectives,
The instrumentation performed satiefactorily with one or two
exceptions.
RUSULTS
Interaction of Gomme Radiation with Steel

_

Gamma radiation fields inside steel cylinders of various thicknesses were compared as a function of cylinder thickness anil time.
The results appeared to be anomalous and will require further stuiy to
Jetermine their validity, thore7ore the combined absorption and mil-

tiple scattering coefficients will not be presented or used at this time.
Relative Gamma Ratiation Ficlie Contribute? tr Various Retiation Sources

Figures 2.71-1 and 2.71-2 show the gamma dose andi dose rates contributed by contaminants both in the air ani on the weather surfaces of
YAS~39.
